How to deal with negative ideas

Daily Insight Video

Today, I want to talk about a situation that happened earlier this week:

I was having a conversation with my wife, Amois, and during that conversation there was a negative thought about something. Fortunately, there was a little elf in the room (This is what happens when you are the child of a life coaching couple). The elf appeared and said, “Can I have your idea?”

I replied by asking what she was going to do with the negative idea, and the elf said, “I’m going to put it in the garbage can for you!”

So I gave the elf my negative idea, and she threw it away in the garbage for me. Even when it escaped from the garbage, the idea flew out the window and out of sight.
